Mark: Hi, it’s Mark from Top Local, we’re here with Adam Wicks and Jesse from Wicks Electric in Vancouver, one of Vancouver’s highest rated electrical contractor, up and coming new guys. How you doing guys?

Adam: Good, how’re you doing Mark?

Mark: Good, so Jesse is going to be subbing in for Adam over the next 4 weeks while he’s is away in Europe, raising all kinds of havoc. So we’re talking about a commercial tenant improvement project, an electrical project that you guys just recently did. What’s the story on this one Adam?

Adam: Yeah Mark, so this project was called Liquid Nutrition, Liquid Nutrition is a chain store selling healthy shakes and healthy food. It was a project out at UBC, at their brand new campus wing. It was one of those projects where there were many different aspects to it and I’m going to show you guys a picture while I explain this. So there is the final project, now there’s the final product of the store. We did a whole lot of wiring here, there was a ton of lights to lay out, there are as you can see, there are track lights, there are pot lights, there are some hanging pendant lights in the back, there are a whole ton of LED strip lights which you can’t really make out, but it you see that lady by the fridge, they are all around the fridge and the menu. There is some low voltage wiring for the control of the till and there was some exit and emergency lighting we completed as well. We also actually installed a whole bunch of speakers at Liquid Nutrition for them, so we provided the whole actual package. Yeah, we walked away very happy with the project and looking forward to many others like this.

Mark: So were there any tight requirements with this, with being out at UBC and that new mall?

Adam: Yeah, that’s a great question. There are actually a lot of requirements out at UBC. They are very strict, they have very specific guidelines, the franchise owner of Liquid Nutrition and the contractor were under tight timelines as well, so there was the budget factor, the timeline factor, with working at UBC which again, came with it’s own challenges and such, but all in all the job went really well, the safety officer at Liquid Nutrition for UBC was really pleased, the franchise owner was pleased and we walked away with another five star review. So all and all it was a great job and we’re looking forward to many more commercial tenant improvement projects in the future.

Mark: Awesome.

At Wicks Electric safety comes first! When the homeowner asked us to fix this malfunctioning light we put up scaffolding to be sure it would be safe for our crew. It may have been reachable from our long ladder but due to the awkward location it would have meant leaning over and potentially losing balance. The homeowner was in complete agreement even if it took a while longer and was pleased that we take our crews’ safety so seriously.

Colton led the team in an epic battle VS. a 24-7 365 plastic manufacturing plant. We swapped out over 500 massive light fixtures with the LED equivelants, saving our clients over 90% on their future power bills. This battle ensued for two months. Electricians with 20 years + experience would shy away from this daunting project. It took an incredible amount of organization and coordination and a huge amount of hours but we did it to the client’s complete satifaction!

Adam was interviewed by the Province for their article about the B.C. government’s Clean Energy Vehicle program and new funding to train electricians in the installation of vehicle charging stations. Wicks Electric has been in the forefront of the industry, installing charging stations for over a year now. So if you are ready to “Go Green”, Wicks Electric is your go to Electrical Contractor!

A Very Happy New Year from all of us at Wicks Electric! May it be a happy, healthy and prosperous year for all! We would like to thank our wonderful clients for a great 2015 and look forward to working with you all in 2016!

A Very Merry Christmas from all of us at Wicks Electric! We wish you all peace, love and laughter during the holidays and into the New Year!

Jordan, Paul, Tyler, Adam, Colton, Jesse, Quinn and Cathy too.

Adam was honoured to be asked to speak to the graduating classes of Vancouver Career College and CDI. Undaunted by the audience of over 1000, he spoke passionately about setting and attaining goals, accepting failures and learning from them, and following your dreams. His speech was so well received that he has been asked to speak to other groups in the New Year. Well done Adam!

As we pause to remember and thank those who serve our country, past and present, we wanted to share this photo of Grandpa Wicks, a sparky in the Navy in WWII. After the war he remained in the Navy as an electrical engineer until his retirement. Our heartfelt thanks to those who fought and continue to do so, protecting our freedoms and enabling us to live the lives we do. Lest We Forget.

Awesome service, great Crew!! We hired Wicks on two separate occasions and the experience was seamless. They took care of the work necessary with some affordable solutions for our electrical work....These are the people you want in your home or business....Highly recommended!!

It was a great experience using Wick’s. Prior to my appointment, communication with Cathy was prompt and all my questions were answered. On the day of the appointment, at the time of the scheduled arrival, Luke called to say he was running late due to heavy traffic (he only arrived 5 or 10 minutes late from the scheduled start time, so it was no big deal anyway). What great customer service communication! When he arrived, he was courteous, professional and knowledgeable. He offered suggestions to the home issues, but never tried to upsell me. He worked hard all day, even skipping lunch. He finished all of the jobs that were required, in the time that he quoted. Everything works great. I’m so happy that I chose Wicks. I would use them again.

Daniela did fantastic work with my chandelier. It was an extremely tough job for one person - just getting the 15 ft ladder set up on her own was a project in itself! (I live in a loft with 17 ft ceilings.) I very much appreciated how respectful and efficient Daniela was, despite those challenges. I will be sure to recommend Wicks to family and friends for all of our electrical needs.

I engaged Wicks Electric to install custom lighting fixtures for my design project - LED alcove lights, wall sconces, pendants, and chandeliers. I was extremely pleased by their professional service! Their team were challenged with mounting a large 11 foot chandelier on a 22 foot high ceiling and Jacob executed the job seamlessly! It made my whole experience stress free. I highly recommend Wicks Electric for their highly qualified, experienced and friendly service!
